MINUTE TO ON/OFFBOARD EMPLOYEES

"strongDM enables our engineering teams to focus more on what they do best, which is build great products."

- Greg Ratner, Co-Founder & CTO

WHY STRONGDM

The world’s largest sales teams rely on Troops for real-time insights into the status of their deals. To generate those insights, Troops ingests terabytes of customer data. Being proactive about data security was incredibly important from day one.

ADMINISTRATOR HEADACHES

When the engineering team doubled in size, Greg realized the status quo wouldn’t scale. The administrative work to maintain provisioning scripts, permissions escalation and database logging plugins was a distraction.

He began looking for a better way to onboard and offboard technical staff.

STREAMLINE SOC2

To demonstrate their commitment to security, Troops wanted to pursue SOC2 compliance. But the process can be pretty painful and require over a year to complete. As a fast growing startup, Troops needed to complete SOC2 under a tighter timeline without distracting the team.

Troops turned to strongDM to speed up the process.

strongDM reduced the work to onboard or offboard an engineer to a single command. Because strongDM automatically logs every user creation/deletion, permission change and query, Troops also saved significant time and effort gathering evidence to answer auditors’ questions.
